[QUOTE="Burton Strauss III, post: 2375508, member: 59677"][url]http://www.awscales.com/support/terminology[/url] For giggles, let's redo the same calcs at 1%AR... Morgan $ 26.730 grams with a tolerance of (+/-)0.097 grams. Or 26.633 to 26.827. (same) So the slab + coin actually weighs between 99.00 and 101.00 grams. Subtracting the coin weight gives you the slab weight, 99.00 - 26.827 = 72.173 but you lose the digit (limiting accuracy is the scale), so 72.17 101 - 26.633 = 74.367 or 74.37. So your slab weight is 73.27 +/- 1.10g So it's just barely accurate enough to differentiate between a silver and cupro-nickel Ike $ (1.91 grams, the cupro-nickel version weighs 22.68 grams, the silver Ike dollar weighs 24.59 grams or 1.91g difference).
